Highlights from QB Country’s 5th Annual Draft Prep Competition at the Senior Bowl
QB Country welcomed more than 100 quarterbacks from 22 states and two countries for the fifth annual QB Country Draft Prep Experience & Competition. The event, held February 1-3 in Mobile, Alabama in partnership with the Reese’s Senior Bowl, offered middle school and high school quarterbacks an intimate look at the NFL Draft Prep process and the nation’s top college football all-star game.
Quarterbacks participated in three days of competitive training with the QB Country staff and special guest college athletes, as well as a Q & A with QB Country’s NFL Draft Prep trainees Bo Nix/Oregon, Drake Maye/UNC, and Carter Bradley/South Alabama. All three college QBs also spent time with younger QBs on the field, and Nix and Bradley participated in the Senior Bowl.
Additional highlights included several experiences unique to Mobile, including attendance at the Senior Bowl, dinner at world-famous Dreamland BBQ, and a Mardi Gras parade. Winners of the competitive element of the weekend had a chance to take the field at the Senior Bowl and participate in a competition throwing to college mascots.
